The Brumous Chapter

All the year 2015 I had been so lazy for
updating this blog, and all you can see is I am really a bad blogger rite? The
latest post is updated last November and I only have 5 posting all the year.
Sigh. Even in the beginning of the new 2016, I didn't active lately. 'cause you
know some problems are really buzzing around my head. Then I am not so late to
have a greeting for HAPPY NEW YEAR FELLAS! in this mid-January. Back then, I
was 'quite' active in 2014, when I was still in my high school life, I posted
tons random things start from the poem, thoughts, recipes, book reviews, and
fashions but then shortly I tided 'em up into 6 posts only. Sigh again. See,
how really bad blogger I am?

brumous(adj.) of grey skies and winter days; filled

While after we heard and shocked by the bombing attacks on Paris last November
2015 that cause at least 128 died. It was so much heartbreaking since Paris is
my favourite city too, just like everyone. The world was in shock by the
attacks. People paid more attention to Paris and "Pray for Paris"
stuff was trending, the contra was simultaneously another side of the world
that were also suffered and had the nation in mourning by the conflicts paid
less attention by the world. But as citing fromCNN,
President Obama said, "This is an attack not just on Paris, not just on
the people in France, but an attack on all humanity and the universal values we
share." He called the attacks an "outrageous attempt to terrorize
innocent civilians."

Then not so long ago, a terror attacked Jakarta and I was in the middle of hung
out not that far from Sarinah, where the attack occurred. That made me super
heartbreaking. While after, I heard the news that terror also attacked
Istanbul. These incidents just happened in a line. I was a little afraid of
writing this. Indonesia, the nation is really in an alert about radicalism.

Moreover, things that really-perhaps-only happens in Indonesia is people acted
like they're in the middle of making actionkinda
movie. Regardless the attacks location is not that way far and there were
police lines around but they keep thronging into. Nowadays trend--every single
thing you do must be updated in social media--is really bugging.

But the nation is declared #KamiTidakTakut -- We are not afraid. As the sentiment from President Joko Widodo that we should not be afraid and defeated by acts of terror like this. But yes, safety come first. Sadly, some people also make fun of the tragedy as if its a joke, I can't handle this one. Come on show the sympathy of the humanity tragedy.

May the tragedies which happened in the beginning new start of 2016 won't take us down. Keep praying and stay safe everyone!x Dayu
